“Great Mother” Who Left Baby in Car on Drug Run Heading Off to Rehab
I called this one. Simpsonville resident Jessica Perry – who was arrested after leaving her baby alone in an unlocked car by I-85 – has told a judge she’s going to rehab in a bid to stay out of prison. This is all but an admission that these trips into North Carolina were drug runs. Drug runs with her baby in tow. Outrageous!
Despite that, here is what Linda Simpson, Perry’s mother, had to say about her daughter:
Linda Simpson, Perry’s mother, told NewsChannel 36 her daughter had never done anything like this before. She described her daughter as “a great mother.”
Really? She was caught twice driving under the influence in one week, had illegal prescription drugs on her and left her baby in a car alone and she’s a great mother? I would hate to see what Linda Simpson thinks is the bare minimum of mothering.
Fox Carolina has video of Perry in court and she’s a remarkably rubenesque woman for a drug addict, which I hope means that her addiction is new enough that it hasn’t destroyed her health. That video interviews a cop who was on scene who said aside from the drugs Hopefully she can get sober but with a mother who can look someone in the face and call Perry a good mother I’m not sure how good a support system she has.
Hipster Douchebag Caught Growing ‘Shrooms in Simpsonville

Look at this fucking mushroom grower:
SIMPSONVILLE, S.C. — At about 5:30 p.m. Friday, deputies with the Greenville County Sheriff’s Office responded to 32 Winding Creek Way in Simpsonville after receiving information about suspicious activity at the residence.
Once on scene, deputies made contact with 40-year-old Arnold Paul Strollo, who they subsequently learned had several outstanding warrants through the sheriff’s office. He was taken into custody without incident.
While at the residence, deputies observed several containers that contained mushrooms in different stages of development.
Investigators from the sheriff’s office determined that the mushrooms were illegal psychedelic mushrooms and sent for a clean-up crew from the DEA dispose of the items.
According to investigators, Strollo faces charges of manufacturing psychedelic mushrooms, simple possession of marijuana, and possession of drug paraphernalia.
Strollo was transported to the Greenville County Detention Center where he awaits a bond hearing.
With facial hair like that what did people think he was going to be doing with his life. You can find more pictures of hipster douchebags here.
Victimless Crime File: Pill Popper Leaves Baby Alone in Car on I-85
29-year-old Jessica Perry of Simpsonville was arrested today when a 13-month old baby was found alone in her unheated car on I-85 near Highway 321. The car was also unlocked, I assume to make it easier for hungry cannibals to get to the free meal.
When police found Jessica, she said they had run out of gas. Of course, no gas station had seen her looking for gas:
GASTONIA, NC (WBTV) – A South Carolina woman was taken to jail after a baby was found alone in a car parked along I-85 near Highway 321.
The young girl was found by herself in an unlocked vehicle with no heat around 1:15 Sunday morning.
The investigating officer said the child was placed in a police cruiser to warm her up. She was taken to Gaston Memorial Hospital for observation, and is expected to be ok.
The officer said that the woman who is believed to be the mother of the child told police that she had run out of gas and left the baby in the car.
29 year old Jessica Perry of Simpsonville, South Carolina has been charged with driving while impaired and contributing to the delinquency of a minor, among other charges.
She also was arrested for DUI a week ago in Mecklenberg County from a week ago. According to this video report it is unknown if the baby is even hers:
Hmmm. What would a woman from Simpsonville be doing traveling to North Carolina once a week even though her license was suspended? Could it have anything to do with the prescription pills she was caught with? Truly a mystery.

Jorae Johnson Likes Attention … and Filing False Police Reports

Jorae Johnson is a 52-year-old woman who hasn’t held up quite as well as living goddess/best selling author Raquel Welch or professional card sharp and well known Greenville Dragnet fan Jennifer Tilly. Not knocking Jorae Johnson, but she’s what’s known as a “hard” 52. This leaves her with not many options when she’s looking for some romance novel style action where a muscular policeman/fireman/Dark Hunter shows up to her door looking for some some middle age lovin’. She could try the classic mating dance of the hottie in the wild, as demonstrated by Raquel Welch:
But something tells me Jorae doesn’t think that would work, What would Jennifer Tilly do?

Tilly probably doesn’t need a gimmick. Especially not one like Jorae used – which was pretending Bank of America launched a bio-attack on her:
SIMPSONVILLE, S.C. — The woman who claimed to have received a powder-laced letter last week was charged Monday.
The incident happened at 705 Spring Lake Loop about 9 p.m. Thursday.
According to an incident report, 52-year-old Jorae Johnson, who lives at the home, said she opened a Bank of America envelope that she had received. She said that when she removed the letter inside and unfolded it, a brown and white powdery substance fell onto her hands. She said that she then started feeling a burning sensation on her hands.
The report said the hazmat team went inside the home and said that Johnson’s claim was unfounded and no powdery substance was found.
On Monday night, deputies said, Johnson was charged with reporting or giving false information to law enforcement. She was released on $2,000 bond.
Johnson’s claim shut down Spring Lake Loop for about an hour, deputies said.
I know it’s not politically correct to call people retarded these days but this scheme was retarded. Why would Bank of America send some hausfrau a poisonous package? Did she think people would just take her word for it even through there was no evidence?
Some people have been saying that this was actually a scheme by a moron to avoid paying her mortgage. But looking at those big blue eyes, bleached blond hair and alcohol bloated face I think she was looking for an excuse to throw herself into the arms of a hunky civil servant.
I’d say throw the book at her but since that would mean her getting cuffed by a cop she’d just enjoy it. Tramp.
